PM Modi to Inaugurate Delhi Metro Corridors and Foundations

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to inaugurate two new metro corridors and lay the foundation stone for three additional corridors in the national capital on Sunday, the Delhi Chief Minister said. The Prime Minister will open the Majlis Park to Maujpur-Babarpur section of the Pink Line and the Deepali Chowk to Majlis Park section of the Magenta Line of the Delhi Metro. The Chief Minister said the projects are worth over Rs 183 billion (bn) and will strengthen public transport across the city.

The Chief Minister said the Majlis Park to Maujpur-Babarpur stretch measures 12.3 kilometres and includes eight elevated stations, forming part of the Pink Line. With this addition, the Pink Line will extend to about 71.56 kilometres, creating the country’s first fully operational Ring Metro. The project will also entail construction of a new bridge across the Yamuna River and a double-decker viaduct that will carry both a metro track and a road flyover to ease traffic flow.

The foundation stones to be laid under Delhi Metro Phase-V (A) encompass the Ramakrishna Ashram Marg to Indraprastha Central Vista Corridor, the Golden Line extension from Aerocity to Indira Gandhi Airport Terminal-1, and the Golden Line extension from Tughlakabad to Kalindi Kunj. The Chief Minister said these corridors are intended to expand network reach and to integrate airport connectivity with existing lines. The extensions are expected to support operational flexibility and to provide alternative routes for commuters.

Officials said the expansion will improve daily travel, reduce congestion and help to control pollution in the capital. The projects are also expected to enhance connectivity for residents of the National Capital Region, particularly commuters from Noida and Faridabad, by providing easier access to Indira Gandhi International Airport. Authorities added that the combined effect of new corridors, bridges and viaducts will contribute to a more resilient urban transport system.
